## What is Kitepower El Gouna?

Kitepower El Gouna is the official wind, tide and forecast app for the kite lagoon in El Gouna, Egypt — powered by our own weather station on the beach, not scraped third-party data.
LIVE, FROM OUR OWN STATION
- Live wind speed, gusts and direction, straight from the station at the kite spot.
- ~4 years and 2 million+ real readings of local history behind every number.
- A full station dashboard: wind, air and sea temperature (with a wetsuit tip), pressure, UV and rain.
A FORECAST BUILT FOR THIS LAGOON
- A 16-day forecast from the Kitepower model — it corrects global models (ICON, GFS, ECMWF, Meteo-France) for local direction bias, daily peaks and the tide-driven afternoon lull.
- It re-learns every night and blends in the live station reading every minute, so a wind drop happening now shows up immediately.
- See it four ways: a daily strip, a full metric table, a per-model comparison, or an interactive graph.
TIDES, WEBCAM & THE GO / NO-GO
- Tides with a kite-specific green walk-out window — see exactly when you can wade out to ride.
- A live spot webcam with DVR rewind, built right into the app.
- A Kite Session verdict — WAIT / FOIL / RIDEABLE / STRONG — plus your best riding window today.
ON YOUR WRIST AND YOUR HOME SCREEN
- A standalone Apple Watch app: live wind, charts, tides and the full station — no phone needed.
- 13 Apple Watch complications for live wind, tides, forecast and station metrics.
- 9 iPhone widgets for the Home Screen and Lock Screen.
- Background wind alerts on your own thresholds — get pinged the moment it's on.
THE WHOLE SCHOOL IN YOUR POCKET
- Courses, rentals, prices, packages, the SALT beach-club menu, massage, the spot guide and airport transfer — a course finder, a trip-price estimator and a best-week planner built on our own station data.
About 72% of days a year are rideable on our lagoon, peaking at 85% in August. Free, on iPhone and Apple Watch.
